Foundation of Healthcare technologies societies provided me with my first ever virtual internship experience and I feel it is a great initiative taken by the organization. I learnt the basic concept of research and the steps involved in conducting a professional research. I feel I have learnt various new concepts and this would help me in my career. The topics that were given to us were very relevant to today’s situations and helped me understand the gravity of the problem in depth. This internship also familiarized me with platforms like PubMed and Google scholar and I understood the importance of credible research. I also learnt how to filter out irrelevant information. After reading multiple research papers, I got an insight on the format of writing a research papers and what all components are included in it. Overall, this internship gave me a clear understanding of research work and improved my skills in this domain.
